- Have completed at least 30 credits at the University of Gothenburg.
- Be registered for at least 30 credits at the University of Gothenburg during the scholarship year (July 1, 2025 – June 30, 2026).
Types of Scholarships
You may only apply for one type of scholarship per application round.
1. Scholarship for travel within studies
Intended to finance study-related travel, with priority given to international travel.
2. Scholarship for living expenses
If you are not traveling within your studies, you may apply for a scholarship to help cover your living expenses.
Selection Process
Priority: Applications for international travel within studies are given first priority.
Travel Period: The trip must not begin before January 1, 2025, and must be completed before the start of the autumn semester 2026.
Ranking: Applications are ranked based on the highest number of university credits achieved at the University of Gothenburg by the application deadline.
If funds remain after all applicants that apply for a travel scholarship have been awarded a scholarship, priority is given to domestic travel within Sweden, and lastly to scholarships for living expenses. If there are several applicants with the same amount of university credits achieved, selection may be done with a draw.
Application Process
Applications must be submitted through the university's scholarship application system.
